King’s Taunton was founded in 1880 and welcomes students from the ages of 2 to 18. This co-educational day and boarding school is located in the South West of England and is split into two schools – King’s Hall is the Prep School and King’s College is the Senior School. Although in slightly different locations, the Prep and the Senior school are less than a 15-minute drive from each other. King’s Taunton is a Woodard school – these schools aim to provide a high quality education for all in a Christian school environment.
King’s College Taunton is one of the best schools for design and technology. The award-winning department has been voted as the best in the country for 4 of the past 5 years by the Good Schools Guide. Their impressive facilities offer pupils variety and flexibility when constructing projects. A number of pupils have received the prestigious Arkwright Scholarship Award, as well as some being recognised by The Sir Henry Royce Memorial Foundation – ‘the most highly prized award given to pupils who have demonstrated a high standard of craftmanship in their project work’.
We offer honest advice to help you find the best UK school for your child.
Our team provides exactly the kind of support for your child that we would want if we were sending our children overseas, and in fact, all of our staff have direct, personal experience with boarding schools.
We visit schools regularly and know them inside and out – the atmosphere they offer, the academic and social environment your child will be in - so we know where your child will fit in best.
Choosing the best education for your child leads many families to consider British schools and universities. However, it is not an easy decision to make.
Our team works hard to understand the needs and strengths of your child, match them to the UK boarding school best suited to their needs, and support them throughout their time in the UK.
Academic Families has personal and professional experience with boarding schools. Many of our staff attended boarding schools themselves when they were young or have worked in them. We have all lived overseas and most of us are mothers, so we understand how important it is to find the very best education for every child no matter where that might be in the world.
From our headquarters in Edinburgh to our local staff across the UK, our team regularly visits hundreds of British schools. Our excellent knowledge of the UK education system, accreditation by the Boarding School Association (BSA) and certification from the British Council means we understand UK boarding education from the inside and out, and know how to ensure the best education for each child.
In addition, our guardianship service has been Gold accredited by AEGIS (the Association for the Education and Guardianship of International Students) since 2016 and also by the BSA, so you know, with Academic Families, you're guaranteed to have the best local support anywhere in the UK.
Moreover, our team are trained MHFA Mental Health First Aiders so we are qualified to support our students with any wellbeing and mental health concerns.
